When the murder case had been
transferred to court room No. 2. yes
terday,, Judse Edwards, In the main
court room, proceeded to try the case
of George Ueams.a young man, charged
with larceny and receiving by Mrs.
Julia Ayerc, of Carbondnle.
Beams boarded with MrH. Ayers from
Nov. 15 to Dec. IS of last year. On the
latter date, v hlle pneslng by her son's
loom on the second lloor she noticed
that his cold watch was lying on his
bureau. Shortly after this, Beams
went upstniis to change his clothed,
wiylmr be was jjolng out to draw his
pay that ho might settle hli'next
month's board, which Was due that
day.
At 0 o'clock that evening Mrs. Ayer's
son, upon going to his room, missed
his watch. When TJeimi did not re
turn that night It was huspected that
li took the watch nnd when, ufler a
week of waltlni, he failed to turn, up,
the suspicion became it certainty In the
minds of the Ayers fnmlly. Detectives
weip put on his track nnd In a few
ilujs he whs nnested In Dinghamton,
wlii'in It wni learned he pawned the
watch with Robert Palmer, a clerk In
the Tarmei's hotel.
TOLD CONFLICTING STORIES.
AVhen hi ought back to Carbondale he
said that a lady friend, of the Pioneer
city, had given him the timepiece, and
on the stand yesterday he said one of
his JMnghnmloti pals had presented It
to him.
Te juty found htm guilty without
leaving "the box. Judge Kdwaids culled
him up for sentence, and after Inti
mating that the court wns moved to
deal leniently with him because of his
youth, asked the usual question ns to
whether or not he had anything to say
before sentence should be passed.
Beams snlckeied and giggled In on
extremely aggravating way, and then
blurted out with a sneer that all he
had to say was that If he was going
to Uo sent to jail he wanted to go to
the penitentiary. "Why do you prefer
the penitentiary?" Judge Edwards
usked.
"JJecauFo they starve you up here at
the county Jail," Beams replied.
"All right, we'll accommodate you,"
the judge rejoined. "You are sen
tenced to pay a fine of $1, the costs of
prosecution, restore the stolen property
or Its equivalent, If not already le
stored, and undergo 'Imprisonment at
hard labor in the Eastern penitentiary
for the period of two years and three
cnlendar months, and stand committed
until the sentence la complied with."
Judge Edwards' earlier questions In
dicated that ho hnd Intended to give
BeamB a term in tho county Jail, which
necessarily would bo less than n, year.
It Is likely, however, that Beams' did
not get more than his due. Chief Jfc
Androw, of Carbondale, has a wanant
chatglng him with hoi so stealing.
BRIDEGROOM IlETLLY CONFESSES
Cliniles J. Bede, alla James Hellly,
and Leioy Karl, two of the accused
Felton burglars, plead guilty. They
will be sentenced after the trial of the
other three, John Williams, Miles
Ktaeey and James Daley, which It is
expected will take place today. Bellly
Is the "boy burglar-bridegroom," whose
mnniage at the county jail to a young
widow whom he had wronged was ex
tensively dwelt upon In the local press
at the time.
Ti. E. Escott. of fake scheme fame,
plead guilty to two charges of fnlse
pietenses preferred by Chlef-of-Police
Bobllng. Escott was In the county
jail for bIx months of last jear for a
like offense. Ho was not out of jnll
two months before he wu back at his
old tricks. lie went to a woman In
Green nidge nnrnwl Mis. Sullivan and
showing her what he represented to
be recommendations fiom Bishop
O'Hnra nnd Bishop Hoban, induced her
to Invest some of her scanty means
in a fake Klondike Investment com
pany. He signed the iccelpt Tatrlck
McClellan."
Soon after this, it developes, he went
to a Mis. Rhodes, and telling her that
he was a member of Elm Paik church,
n Prohibitionist nnd a contributor to
teliglous papei, won her contldence
and f-olrt her S10 worth of stock In the
Scrnnton Real Estate Investment com
pany. It of course turned out that the
stock was no good and that nothing
wns known of Escott nt the oflices of
the :cal cstatn comiiiiny.
POVERTY J
J HIM TO IT.
Escott pleaded lo Judge Gunster for
leniency. Ho raid he waH drlpn to
commit these crimes by the sight of
his wlfo and children suffering for
things to eat. Judge Gunster hesitat
ed to exercise clemency In view of tho
former offenses of Escott but llnnlly
after giving notice that the full pen
alty would be Indicted for the next of
fense ho let him off with live months
in the county Jail,
Constable Frank Shlffer plead guilty
of forging three email checks on E. S.
Williams. In view of the fact that
ho has made reimbursement nnd that
thcro Is n question as to his mental
condition tho district attorney did not
press for sentence. His case will bo
disposed of Saturday,

TILSTON SEEKS DAMAGES.
Uo Caused Much Amusement While
on tho Stand.
The first of tho two special week ses
sions of common pleas ordered for the
purpose of clearing the list of tho Trac
tion rompany damage coecs "was be
gun yesterday. Judge Albright, of Le
high county, Is presiding and the ses
sion Is being held In the superior court
room.
The llrst case on tho list, that in
which Allan Lawrence socks to recov
er $20,000 for the death of his 4-vear-old
son was continued for settlement.
It Is understood that the case has been
settled but with the understanding
that the terms, hhould not be made
public.
Samuel Tilston's $10,000 suit for per
sonal Injury, was called for trial after
olnner and was on all afternoon. IIus
lander & Alworth ure his attorneys,
and Jessup & Jessup appear for tli'e
company.
Tllston is a contractor and lives In
Providence. Dec. 24, 1S9I, he came
down town on a Providence car and
got a transfer for the Dunmore Subur
ban line, Intending to go to Dunmore
to the measurements for a house he
expected to construct.
"While waiting for a car lie walked
up to court house square and on Ad
orns avenue as overtaken by A Pe
tersburg car.
He jumped on the ftont end and
asked the motormnn If It was a Dun
more cat. He was told that it wasn't
but evidently misunderstanding what
the inotnnnnn said jumped ofT and
caught the rear end of the car. While
the conductor was explaining to hint
that he was on the wrong1 car and
Tllston wns putting tho transfer back
In hie pocket the car passed out of
tho switch. It Is claimed by the plain
tiff thut the excessive speed of the car
caused It to give a luich that threw
Tllston from tho platform and caused
l-.un to stilke heavily on the pavement,
the fall rendering him unconscious and,
It in alleged, affectlm; his mind.
The defense Is that he was guilty of
contributory negligence In boaidlng a
car that was in motion and In not
taking precautions to guaid against
the dongeis Incident lo .standing on the
platform of a moving car.
When Tllston was called to the stand
yesterday he betiayed signs of not hav
ing n very clear mind or steady legs
and his answers and actions caused no
end of amusement. The case will
probably get to the jury before noon
today.
